A book is pushed off the edge of a table. At what point during the fall will the potential and kinetic energy be equal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vfiekz [6]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

KE = PE at half the table Height:

Explanation

AT ANY POINT IN THE BOOK'S FALL,

TOTAL E = PE +KE

THE TOTAL E IS CONSTANT

Before the book is pushed off, the total energy is potential

TOT E=PE =MGH

BEFORE THE BOOK HITS THE GROUND, THE TOTAL E IS KINETIC

TOT=KE = MVXV/2

WHEN KE = PE

KE+PE =<u> MGH (STARTING ENERGY SINCE E IS CONSERVED)</u>

<u>OR PE+ PE = MGH</u>

<u>OR MGH' + MGH' =MGH</u>

<u>OR 2H' =</u>H

H' (NEW HEIGHT) =H/2

The energy of a nuclear reactor gets converted to electricity by using steam. As steam converts mechanical energy to electricity.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

Nuclear reaction works on the principle of nuclear fission. The main functioning of nuclear reactor is the generation of neutrons by fission of Uranium oxide.

The rate of generation of neutrons need to be controlled in the reaction to have a controlled chain reaction which is suitable for generating electricity.

So, the controlling of rate of nuclear generation is done by moderators. The moderators are generally water or graphite in any nuclear reactor. So during these process, steam is produced in the reactor core which then flows through a turbine engine.

The steam rotates the turbines in the generator and thus the mechanical energy of the turbine during rotation is converted as the electrical energy in the generator.

Helga [31]

Answer: Membrane Protiens

Explanation:

In facilitated diffusion, molecules diffuse across the plasma membrane with assistance from membrane proteins, such as channels and carriers. A concentration gradient exists for these molecules, so they have the potential to diffuse into (or out of) the cell by moving down it.

What is the mass of 3.5 l of co2(g)? (density = 0.0019 g/ml, answer to hundredths place)?
monitta
Density is defined as mass per unit volume.
density =  \frac{mass}{volume}
the mass of 1 mL of CO₂ is  - 0.0019 g
3.5 L = 3500 mL 
then the mass of 3500 mL of CO₂ is - 0.0019 g/mL x 3500 mL = 6.65 g
mass of 3.5 L of CO₂ is 6.65 g
